CLASS IX.— HYBRID NOISETTE ROSES. 
(Rosa Noisettiana hybrida.) 
This is a modern group of considerable importance, obtained chiefly from crosses between Remontant. Bourbon and 
.Noisette Ro8es. I hey generally flower in small clusters, and bloom freely throughout the year. The flowers are mostly 
white, and though small are generally of good form. They are of about the same hardiness as the Bourbons and Hybrid 
rcQuiring' a little more care in their protection than the H 3 'brid Perpetuals. Eliza Boelle and Mme. Noman are the 
most beautiful, but are also the poorest growers. It is a class quite subject to mildew. 
COQUETTE DES AL.PES, vig. or free. (Lacharme, 1867.) White, slightly shaded with carmine; medium size; form 
semi-cupped; wood long-jointed; larger flowers than the others. The strongest grower of the entire class. Bud¬ 
ded and on own roots. 50c.

form. An exquisite rose. Budded plants. 50c. 
Madame Noman, dwf. ( Guillot-pere , 1807.) White, sometimes with shaded center; medium size; full, globular. A 
rose of exquisite beauty. Budded plants. 50c. 
CLASS X.—HYBRID REMONTANT OR HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES. 
(Rosa damascena hybrida.) 
This class thrives the best in a rich soil. The pruning should be regulated by the habit of growth, the weak shoots 
closely cut in, those which are vigorous left longer. Most of the varieties are fragrant: some of them, like Alfred 
Colombo Louis Van Houtte , Mme. Victor Verdier, etc., are most deliciously perfumed. 
Although they are styled perpetual bloomers, none of them are such in reality. However, many of them yield a fair 
second crop of flowers in the autumn, which is very acceptable. Aside from this, there is no class, take it all in all, so 
popular and which gives such general satisfaction.
